Thinking on it... (Number|Object|String) .strict(Equal|Greater|Less...) Methods (a, b) might be better... If either value isn't a match for the bound type, it's a false, even if both sides are equal...
Ex,. Number.strictEqual(null, null) false Object.strictEqual(1, 1) false ... If you're doing a strict compare, one can presume you should know what you're comparing. -- Michael J.
